After 9/11 urban surveillance has become a primary source of information for the agencies that monitor cities in search for security threats. We are constantly been monitored in ways that we are not aware of. The Periscope re-examines urban surveillance as a social phenomenon and offers the opportunity to the public to participate in the process of surveying.
